This presentation project works perfectly while students are learning English related to health and/or nutrition. In this project, students must choose a popular diet, such as the keto diet or the Mediterranean diet, research information about it, and then present their findings through a slideshow presentation. Each group must be assigned a different diet; I allowed them to choose in class from a list I prepared. Students work in groups of no more than four, and the presentation should last around 10 minutes. I instructed students that their presentations should include the following information:
• What is the diet?
• What are the origins of this diet?
• Who is it for?
• Pros/cons
• Does the scientific research seem to support it? (Provide examples)
• Example meal plan with this diet (at least 3 days)
• Is this legit or just a fad? Would you recommend this diet?
This may be a project that students work on in class or at home. The teacher evaluates the presentations based on his/her rubric. Students should have this rubric beforehand so that they know how they will be evaluated. This project works best with intermediate to advanced teenage and adult students. Below is a short slideshow that includes the instructions for the presentations as well as the list of diets that students may choose from:
